    Polar Value Axis
    In This Topic

    The Polar Value axis scales the polar series values in the polar chart value dimension. It always uses a Numeric scale. The Polar Value axis has a set of settings, which are grouped in several property pages. Following is a description for the settings related to Polar Value axes:

     General

    Visible - defines the visibility of the axis.

    Orientation - defines the axis orientation. The axis orientation is the side where labels appear when looking at the axis scale from its start point. For example a typical polar value axis will have Left orientation (labels are positioned on the left side). Possible values are: 

    Auto - the axis will automatically determine its orientation based on its position (see below). 
    Left - the axis will always use left orientation regardless of its position.
    Right - the axis will always use right orientation.

    Position - defines the position of the polar value axis. Possible values area:

    Cross 0 - the axis originates from the polar center and is directed towards the polar angle axis 0 angle position (e.g. crosses the angle axis at 0 degrees).

    Cross 90 - the axis originates from the polar center and is directed towards the angle axis 90 angle position.

    Cross 180 - the axis originates from the polar center and is directed towards the angle axis 180 angle position.

    Cross 270 - the axis originates from the polar center and is directed towards the angle axis 270 angle position.

    Left - the axis originates from the polar center Y position. Has vertical orientation and is positioned at the left side of the polar chart.

    Right - the axis originates from the polar center Y position. Has vertical orientation and is positioned at the right side of the polar chart.

    Top - the axis originates from the polar center X position. Has horizontal orientation and is positioned at the top side of the polar chart.

    Bottom - the axis originates from the polar center X position. Has horizontal orientation and is positioned at the bottom side of the polar chart.

    Show Reflection - specifies whether a mirror reflection of the axis should be displayed.

    The rest of the Polar Value axis settings are common for all axis types and are briefly described in the Common Axis Settings topic.
